I approached my boss at Uhaul and asked if Uhaul would sponsor a build. After some questions and pictures of my build he asked me to come up with a proposal.
I need some help in this build proposal because I am not quite sure what would be a decent setup for something they may be put on display at the front of the store or whatever they may do with it
.
My idea is build a system that has the same color scheme as a Uhaul truck. It would be all white (MB, case) with orange vinyl on the outside and some orange components and orange tubing (maybe UV tubing with UV lights added to the build) inside.
But I am not quite sure what is good nowadays as far as a MB manufacturer and CPU combo, the case should be easy. I plan on using a Swiftech AIO and painting it white (not the fins though) if I watercool at all. I am not sure what they would do with this build so I want to make maintenance easy if I go the watercooling route. I plan on two options for this proposal, one for lower end graphics and the other for a bit higher (thus more expensive) performance.
I have a Cricut machine for cutting out the vinyl and I have access to plenty of vinyl for this project.
I am not going to be picky on this build as far as Intel, AMD, nvidia, etc....
So far it is between this MSI board and this Asus board. Right now the MSI board is in the lead as the colors match the basic aluminum and white colors of a uhaul truck.
But now I need some decent RAM that is either orange in color or has it so I can remove the base heatsinks to change them out for orange heatsinks, if I can find some.
So ideas?
